Can you imagine a world without cows? I can’t. But I’m sure there are some people who think differently. To get facts and answers to this question, a feature-length documentary is in the final stages and is made possible by Planet of Plenty – World Without Cows. Here is some information about the production.
World Without Cows is an incredible journey around the world in search of the answer to a simple question: Are we better off in a world without cows? With unprecedented global access to the leading minds in agriculture and science, filmmakers Brandon Whitworth and Michelle Michael investigated the cultural and economic importance of cows, their role in feeding the world, and their impact on the climate. What they discovered was anything but simple: When it comes to cows, things are not black and white. World Without Cows invites viewers to take a scientific look at the real impact cows have on our world – and the potential consequences of their absence.
Our goal is to challenge prevailing opinion and encourage viewers to engage with the scientific evidence.
I spoke to Dr. Mark Lyons from Alltech about the project at CattleCon earlier this year.
